Stager Configuration File |
The stager configuration file is a Tcl script. Note that since it is update by the Stage every 5 seconds, it is not safe to edit it while the stager is running. When the stager is halted, it is possible to edit this script to alter the startup configuration of a nearly correctly configured stager.
The configuration variables set in the configuration file are:
| Name | Meaning |
| SourceHost | The name of the host on which the Readout program will be started. |
| ReadoutPath | The UNIX path to the Readout program. |
| ftphost | The host on which data will be stored via the eventlog/ftp client |
| TapeCapacity | Number of gigabytes of tape capacity on the selected tape drive. |
| TapeNumber | Previous tape number. |
| StageStrategy | Strategy used to determine when to stage |
| TapeDrive | Path to the tape special device to which data will be staged. |
| StageThreshold | Threshold setting for the Stager's strategy. The units of this are dependent on the staging strategy itself. |
| stagelist | List of directories for which run files will be retained on stage. Essentially, this is the file retention list. Click here for more information. |
